Dear Simon,

Thank you for contacting Mearto with your appraisal inquiry.
This painting is atypical of the majority of Weeks' works, which tend to depict Orientalist / desert scenes. In the current market, buyers often prefer 'typical' works to 'atypical' works so I have been conservative with my valuation.
Based on the photographs and information provided, and subject to examination, this is:
